Quite a few mine 70s Pop Rock, but few do it as splendidly as Nashville's The Medium on this short, but incredibly sweet 4 Track EP. It does sound very Retro and is a nod to American Boyhood and the connection that Sport provides to it.
We've Got A Winner is wonderfully mellow, very 10CC, but with a slight Psych Pop feel. It demonstrates the joy that the genre brings. The Guitar solo fits those years perfectly, essentially Piano Pop and very smooth. A really easy listen.
Me And My Glove is fine Bubblegum Pop and is like a jaunt though a Monkees show, trumpets, easy listening and a slight raiding of the Instrument cupboard. A jaunty march through Smalltown America, you don't get to see the marching band and cheerleaders.
Feel The Dream is very Andrew Gold with almost Barrel Piano with a Sports commentary part way through, which is probably obligatory. Tap your feet, swing your pants, sing along and marvel at the joy. An Easy Listening joy of an EP.
You can listen to and buy the EP here.
